The core of the poodle
I'm on good terms with the Casamoratis and so I tried Mefisto carefully - careful with the infernal title.

I'm still looking for a fine fragrance for my subtle friend - and the name Mefisto doesn't just stir up my hope.

But my hesitation was inappropriate - because this soft, gentle fragrance got into the bottle during Mefisto's transformation into a poodle.

The beginning is lively citric, soon calmed down by the clear lavender - and is downright cuddly by the velvety rose powdered over with iris.

Amber adds light sweetness and a violet flashes through.
The cedar adds a touch of casual elegance.

With these attributes I could also describe my poodles - which I like as owner of this lively and elegant breed.
And the scent is the counterpart.

For my sensitive friend, the right fragrance determines - but I still have to think about the price.

That's the only catch on this round scent.

My favorite close-up fragrance for sports
Mefisto is an unobtrusive, fresh and citrusy fragrance that I like to wear for sports - when I am intruding on other people's privacy, for example when playing contact sports in a club.
You may be familiar with this...
You spray on a strong fragrance that you really like, but feel uncomfortable when you are in close physical proximity to people - the airplane also comes to mind.
In such a case, I like to wear Mefisto.

In contrast to its brother Casamorati - Mefisto Gentiluomo, which for me is a typical clean man's fragrance - soapy, fresh and clean - this one is much more citrusy and simply goes in a completely different direction in terms of character.
Its brother Casamorati - Mefisto Gentiluomo is somewhat inconspicuous. They are both pleasant and unobtrusive, although the Casamorati - Mefisto is much more expressive for me. In addition to the soapiness, the Casamorati - Mefisto Gentiluomo has a slight sweetness and a hint of coconut.

Casamorati - Mefisto is a well-balanced work of art that has a secure place in my selected collection.
Mefisto creates one thing:
It combines gentle accents to create a balanced atmosphere.
A hint of metallic notes with a perfect citrus accord on a solid woody base, where the sandalwood is present but dialed down so much that it merely serves as a connector of the accords and bed of notes.
The soft, barely perceptible rose would only be conspicuous by its absence, playing the role of the cherry on top of the cream cake.
As microdosed as it may be, it is just as hard to imagine the perfume without it.

Casamorati - Mefisto , my favorite sporty and close-up fragrance.

The devil as a relatively undefined figure without a personality of his own
Isn't the devil's greatest art to make us believe that he doesn't exist? A minimal touch of citrusy, fruity freshness at the beginning, which must give way in no time to a floral, rosy levender mixture that does not really come beyond an upscale fabric softener feeling or sachet - that's called Mefisto. I'm just imagining how many sachets of fragrance I could probably buy for that money. Woody notes and musk don't pull it out then either. What the whole thing should have to do with a men's fragrance is beyond me. Mefisto laughs himself silly that this is still bought. He has deceived us beautifully.

Nothing but class here my friends. If you dont have the money, rob someone that wont press charges-lol The open of the Fresh citrus, calabrian lemon, grapefruit, and bergamot are as real as it gets in the niche perfumery world. The middle notes of lavender flowers, damascene rose, white flowers, florence iris are so light that when the scent drifts into your nose it makes you feel just wanting more & more. Well dont worry about the wanting aspect because the base of sandalwood, cedarwood, Amber and musks will make you feel unstoppable to anyone in your path. The ladies will remember you for many days and nights- Trust Me! 10/10 bigtime!

Classic summer fragrance
The Casamorati - Mefisto is a wonderful classic summer fragrance.
After spraying, you immediately smell the strongly present bergamot and citrus scents in general. Then in the drydown, the fragrance takes on a light floral note, which you can perceive beautifully, because the floral is not too overwhelming but combines well with the top note.
The durability of the fragrance is good but not oversized, because it lasts around 6-8 hours on my skin The silage of the fragrance is not too strong but light and nicely perceptible.
The bottle is beautiful in my opinion, it reflects the fragrance well, because the fragrance is classic like the bottle.
I can recommend the fragrance to people who are still looking for a summer/spring fragrance and want something that smells subtle but nice and is also liked by the masses.

Fresh and bright with woody and ambery musks. Juicy top with a bright lavender mixed with rose. On drydown it gets creamier and harmless.

There is a legion of better frags in this scent profile for 1/10 of the ridiculous price asked for this pretentious creation.

Bright powdery citrus-floral. Very fresh and clean. Woody as it dries down. More citric than its flanker, Gentiluomo
